4th of July On the Coast



































































Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July.











We took a long drive along the coast , had lunch on the water, stopped in some small towns, did some yard sales, antique stores, drove by old homes and visited family. It was a very nice relaxing time.

I love this homemade laundry soap,it smells so good and cleans clothes so much better than what you buy.( My grandson goes mud bogging on a dune buggy) and this gets the mud out !!

I really enjoy doing things the old fashion way like making soap, hanging laundry on the clothes line to dry when the sun is shinning and the wind is blowing. I am glad we do not have to do things this way all the time but sometimes it just feels good.
I guess another of my simple pleasures!
